You should take it back, it needs to be scanned to see what the problem is. That message alone doesnt point to a single item that needs replacing.
Fitting a DQ500 wouldn't save you anything. All kinds of dramas to make that work.
First why Lubemobile and not a Euro specialist?
A new clutch pack is a grand of the $4800 rebuild cost. Bearings arent pricey but there's plenty of work to get to them and replace.

Send your VIN I'll look it up. FYI though, one of those numbers is LH the other RH
I think it's a stretch to expect a dealer to warranty an unknown vehicle with 140k that is well over 10 years old. I'd certainly expect them to fight if something failed. Even having a roadworthy and...
It's a 5k job to repair with a new head and chain kit, if there's nothing else wrong with it. No one in the trade is going to a give few grand, for one with a bad engine. There's plenty available for...
Usually count from the left, where the pulley is.
Sorry I missed your post.
You could have it rebuilt I never got one done here though and it wont be cheap.
Upgrading the turbo is an expensive exercise. Turbo, TIP, intake, intercooler, MAF...
TBH I wouldn't go mad with expensive parts. There's nothing wrong with a new rear seal. I would do the clutch though
You can buy Airtec ones easily, so I wouldnt bump the value based on its OEMness :D
How much is it?
More details on the car will help. I'm guessing its a MK7 of some description. Call me at TTY Euro in Mordialloc. Gavin
You'll have to be the guinea pig mate. Let us know. Make sure you get the 1.8T pipework.
N80 valves and Carbon canisters break all the time.
I know several VW mechs that grew up rebuilding these engines every week. They just use the std oil everytime. It's against the grain for me but the few I have had a hand in dont gobble oil...
I have helped plenty of guys tune remotely but the choice is yours, if you are happy with them no need to swap. My mate that tunes for me has done lots and lots of big turbo me7 stuff. Flashing ECUs...
I'd advise a k280, better suited to road driving. I have a k300 and it's not as user friendly as the 280 builds I have done for customers. No need to do a link. I can assist with tuning your stock...
I would run thicker oil. I use a Liqui Moly 10w40. Doesnt seem to use a great deal. But TBH I don't run full service mileage anyway. I do trackdays and stuff and I am always dropping the oil.
If...
Try Tooleys in NSW if you havent already. I get sumps off them all the time.
A new sump from Tooleys would be cheaper. A grand is mad. Although sometimes you need to drop some of the downpipe to get it out.
You can run bigger fronts on their own if you want. An upgrade to the master cylinder makes the best of them. There's not a massive imbalance for the street.
I am sure you can get the parts easy enough but probably not in australia. The 02R is similar inside to nearly all the 4 cylinder cable shift boxes before it
An R36 with the price of fuel in NZ!! Welcome to the forum
